No negatives
Assume numbers in A1 and A2
I want to get the difference between A1 minus A2 but only if the answer is NOT negative.I want to dispay 0 if then answer is negative. I have been using =if (a1A2,A1-A2,0) is there an easier way? Thanks -- Norton Professional 2004 says this email is clean...believe it |
